William Bishop (performing artist)

 * – ( View AfD View log | edits since nomination)

Deleted multiple times under many different titles. This version was rejected at draft but moved tendentiously by conflicted user, so here we are majority of the sources do NOt support the content. Theroadislong (talk) 16:46, 29 September 2022 (UTC)


 * Delete I was actually just about to nominate it myself, but thank you for doing the work on it. For the record for others, has a slew of comments already made to the page creator letting them know the article is not ready for mainspace. The article itself also appears promotional and at least somewhat like a conflict of interest. EggRoll97 (talk) 16:48, 29 September 2022 (UTC)
 * Comment Previously deleted as William Bishop (Author, Musician), William Bishop (Musician, Author), Draft:William Bishop, Draft:William Bishop (Musician) and William Bishop (singer). There is also an ongoing sockpuppet investigation. Theroadislong (talk) 16:57, 29 September 2022 (UTC)
 * Delete Not ready for an article, especially with the slew of failed verification feedback during draft phase. Before this was nominated, I left a note for the editor who bypassed AfC and moved it to article space and was hoping they would reconsider. Too late now. ☆ Bri (talk) 17:00, 29 September 2022 (UTC)
 * Delete I don't think this is what wikipedia is for. Sourcing just isn't enough to have an article. Bypassing AfC is a concern. Should likely SALT this. Oaktree b (talk) 17:38, 29 September 2022 (UTC)
 * Comment Would also support SALT on this. Clearly has been recreated too many times by this point. EggRoll97 (talk) 17:49, 29 September 2022 (UTC)
 * Comment Ditto ☆ Bri (talk) 18:29, 29 September 2022 (UTC)

 * Speedy Delete and Salt: significant COI concerns, entirely promotional, and notability has not been established. The claims in the article are not verified by the sources. Bypassing AFC during active COI and SPI investigations also suggest the editor is clearly WP:NOTHERE. Melcous (talk) 23:25, 29 September 2022 (UTC)
